And another reason for a rally is that where the fuck is anyone going to place their money now a days to make a cool risk free 5%, it sure is not happening in CDs or money markets. Would be nice if a guy retired in his 70's with a few hundred thousand could place that money quietly in a 1-2 year CD paying 5% so he can withdraw that money to pay his utility bills or put food on his table but no, bubble ben bernanke would rather have rates at 0% to prop up all the banks and give them all the free money they can get their hands on. It will be years before you can get 4-5% in a money market account years!!!!!!
